all though you could see a bounce in the price, I also forgot to mention in previous post that xom was generating the numbers they were based on gas and diesle that was $4 per gallon and oil that was between $60 and $150 per brl. gas and oil have come down not to long ago and you saw what it did to thier latest qrtr eps. So you tell me what you think $1.75 gas and diesle and $20 to $40 per brl. oil will look like on thier next qrtr eps. This is also a stock that they use to help manipulate the dow and s&p. I have a target on the dow of between 3500 and 6000 and around 500 on the S&P. These are only my opinions.
